Several cities around the world were redesigned at the beginning of the last century to host the automobile revolution. Many streets were reinvented to make room for motor vehicles, and the space for pedestrians in public space was rethought. As cars took over the city, the Lumière brothers experimented with the first film cameras and left us the first documentary on cycling races, depicting the Lyon – Geneva race of 1896.
The arrival of motor vehicles meant the reduction of distances, allowed the relocation of industries to the urban periphery and once again reorganized the urban map. Distances increased considerably and workers, attracted by better opportunities, populated popular neighborhoods outside the urban center. Public transport grew at this time in response to the need to move workers; however, the bicycle continued to be the queen of mobility, especially between wars. Losing a bicycle was a great drama, as we can see in Vittorio de Sica’s premiere, “Ladri di biciclette” (1948).
The periphery, the banlieue, the suburbs… are today often heirs of a manufacturing urban past, full of illusions and dreams of innovation. They are home to many migratory processes and the birthplace of new forms of urban culture. However, they are often poorly connected to the urban centre, making them separate islands from the city. Islands full of young creators who see audiovisuals as an excellent way to communicate, a medium for self-expression, and a great opportunity to overcome physical boundaries. The bicycle shortens distances and makes us physically experience the city with each pedal stroke. It is a tool to recover the city, think about the urban, and redesign the territory.
If the motor vehicle redesigned the 20th-century city, the bicycle redesigns the 21st-century city. Many cities have started to include or extend their network of bike paths, offer subsidies for the purchase of personal or cargo bikes, and more and more groups of amateur cyclists are emerging, thus creating more communities of interest. The bicycle plays an important role in active mobility, being an environmentally friendly means of transport and a way to maintain a healthy lifestyle. Still, as Barden would portray in 1955, relationships on the road aren’t always happy.
Cinema has portrayed these problems and many others related to mobility; stands out as an almost universal way of initiating dialogue about the urban, the territory, mobility and the way we live the city.
We invite the presentation of films that reflect on the following themes, or others in which the bicycle plays an important role in urban life in society:
– Shared bicycle practices
– Discover the city by bike
– The bicycle as a tool for working and experiencing the city
– Cycling communities
– Youth, territory and freedom on wheels
– Social justice, bicycles and the right to the city
– Environment and bicycles
– Daily bike commuting and community identities
– Minorities and bicycle
– Periphery and cycling
– Bike & sports

Insólito is the first festival in Peru dedicated to genre cinema, with special emphasis on horror and fantasy. We seek to vindicate this way of making films, instilling its appreciation and promoting the realization of independent projects. We believe that genre cinema has not lost the power to move us, inspire us and at the same time offer us readings and interpretations of our own reality. The Insólito Festival also has the mission of being an exhibition window for new and diverse voices of terror and fantasy, bringing them closer to new and exciting audiences.
Another journey into the fantastic and unknown begins. Unusual: International Fantastic Film Festival announces the call for its fifth edition.
Our first four editions obtained good comments from the public and the press; This does nothing more than renew Insólito's commitment to show Peruvian viewers the best genre cinema that has been made worldwide: horror, fantasy, science fiction, exploitation, and everything that challenges the most conventional ways of seeing and make movies
Due to the current conditions caused by Covid-19, this edition will have a mixed format, in order to continue inviting the community of new viewers that virtuality made possible, but also retaking our physical spaces for the face-to-face.
Eneagrama es un Festival Internacional de Cine Experimental que propone una muestra con talleres y conversatorios en la ciudad de Córdoba capital.

Celaya Experimental Film Fest es una plataforma para la creación y exhibición de trabajos y obras audiovisuales que están enfocados en la experimentación técnica, conceptual y narrativa. El festival da la bienvenida a artistas que transgredieron y trascendieron las barreras de la estética, la técnica y la semítica para romper los estándares dominantes en la industria. Creemos que el cine experimental es libre, radical y propositivo y que a la vez responde a la necesidad antropológica, social, artística y filosófica de explorar horizontes fuera de las grandes formas hegemónicas de la creación cinematográfica encontrando auténticas maneras de crear arte audiovisual.
Celaya Experimental Film Fest abre su convocatoria internacional a todos los artistas con propuesta original o personal, que salgan de los estándares convencionales, explorando los límites del lenguaje cinematográfico y buscar una esencia o marca unida dentro de cualquier obra de su autoría.
La segunda edición de CELAYA EXPERIMENTAL FILM FEST se celebrará en Celaya, Guanajuato, México del 01 al 10 de Septiembre de 2022 con los trabajos audiovisuales remarcables y más impresionantes dentro de nuestra convocatoria, un jurado especializado estará encargado de otorgar menciones a las propuestas que representen el cine experimental como disciplina.
MALDITO Video Poetry Festival launch this contest with the purpose to show two disciplines that, either individually or collectively, are much more isolated and forgotten as we would like. According to our experience, these disciplines are considered marginal and minor in the extent of the great European capitals, moreover in the humble towns within regional borders where its dissemination is nonexistent.
MALDITO Crew, as lovers of poetry, image and the expressive possibilities of its symbiosis, picks up the baton and propose to continue the line of action; willing to arouse interest in the Festival, reaching out to the general public and making this event great since the very beginning.
Not only MALDITO aims to be influent and popular amongst the mass and social media, but also want to be a reference. MALDITO seeks to vindicate video poetry as an art that connects people, transmits feelings and stimulates different ways to see the world. It is also a tiny contribution of enormous people to empower visual art, stopping it from being marginal and damned*
* The Spanish word for damned is MALDITO.
